My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each client. I integrate evidence-based therapies to help clients explore emotions, build practical skills, strengthen relationships and boundaries, and create meaningful change that reflects their values and goals. I also work to understand each client within the context of their unique experiences, culture, identity, relationships, and stage of life.
Many of the clients who come to work with me are high-achieving, deeply feeling teenage girls and women who are used to appearing capable on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, or stuck internally. Some are navigating perfectionism, people-pleasing, academic or career pressure, relationship stress, or major life transitions. Others are adjusting to pregnancy, postpartum life, motherhood, or the emotional and identity shifts that can come with caring for others while trying not to lose themselves in the process.
I also have a particular interest in supporting women living with chronic health concerns. Physical symptoms, medical uncertainty, changes in functioning, and the ongoing demands of managing health can affect identity, relationships, mood, and a person’s sense of safety and control. Therapy can offer a space to process those experiences while also building tools for navigating stress, boundaries, self-advocacy, and the emotional impact of living in a body that may not always feel predictable.
Above all, I aim to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported. I’m especially drawn to working with thoughtful, self-aware clients who are not simply looking for quick fixes, but are interested in deeper insight and lasting change.
I continue to be inspired by the clients who allow me to be part of their healing and growth, and I recognize how much courage it can take to begin therapy. Please feel free to reach out with any questions about me, my approach, or the therapy process before scheduling an initial appointment.
Hi, I’m Dr. Ashley
As a recovering perfectionist myself, I know what it’s like to feel like you’re hustling for your worth in all aspects of life. I’ve made it my mission to help others move out of survival mode and build lives that feel more grounded, intentional, and aligned with their values. Together, we can begin untangling anxiety, stress, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and the inner critic that keeps telling you you’re somehow not doing enough.
I specialize in thoughtful, evidence-based therapy for adolescent girls and adult women that looks beneath the surface, honors your experiences, and builds on the strengths you already have. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, develop greater self-compassion, and make more conscious choices in their relationships, families, school, careers, and day-to-day lives. I believe that when we understand the “why” and “how” behind our patterns, we create more space to respond differently.
